There are reports Kevin De Bruyne could be ruled out of tonight’s Serie A match between Napoli and Bologna with a fresh fitness issue.

It kicks off at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona at 19.45 UK time (20.45 CEST).

The Partenopei need a victory to consolidate second place and break free of the increasingly close fight for a Champions League spot.

De Bruyne problem for Napoli

According to Sky Sport Italia, there is a late surprise problem for coach Antonio Conte to contend with, as De Bruyne might not be ready to participate.

Radio Kiss Kiss also report that De Bruyne will not be in the starting XI, as Giovane is expected to step into the front three with Rasmus Hojlund and Alisson Santos.

There is some good news, though, as captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo could make his first appearance since suffering a knee ligament injury on January 31.

He could even be thrown straight back into the starting XI, after sitting on the bench for the 0-0 with Como.

Napoli probable: Milinkovic-Savic; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno; Politano, Lobotka, McTominay, Gutierrez; Giovane, Hojlund, Alisson
